From YKTTW

Forlong: I'm wondering if we should have a new pic for this page. I was thinking a pic of Riza Hawkeye from Fullmetal Alchemist when she's screaming "You bitch!" and firing wildly. The caption below could read: "Now would be a really good time to tell her he's not dead."

Morgan Wick: Looks like whoever put up the quote found a Parental Bonus.

Corned Bee: And got it wrong. It's "call", not "called". But the page is currently locked. —- Edit: never mind. Apparently I accidentally locked it.

Randallw: regarding Pratchett, there's another character Edward De'Ath who gets angry whenever someone pronounces his name wrong (It's Dee-ath). Granted he isn't berserk.

Robert Bingham: Moved all of the "This Troper" examples to Troper Tales.

Fat R: Removed Gundam SEED Destiny example for being factually incorrect. Code words programmed into the "sleeper" Extended do not provoke rage - hearing them causes overwhelming fear and desire to retreat from battle.

Anonymous: Where did the +Anima example go? I swear it was on here...


Must...kill...world...
- Ian, Mac Hall
Should this be on the page? He was squicked, not mad. —Document N

The entry regarding The Boondock Saints wasn't really a Berserk Button. It only happens once, and at most he just mocks the speaker. There are instances of the character getting much crazier. I'd say the bit about cold crime scenes is more appropriate.


Seikai: It's been a while since I've visited this page, but I just wanted to say... that the current trope image is full of win. It made me chuckle out loud.
